Reborn Through Fire novel Chapter 631

Chapter 631 His Heart Has Stopped

The panting and the wide, warm back she heard and felt in her daze were real. It was really

Gilbert who carried her back.

‘He said before he would not let me die with him around, and he actually did it.‘ Yet, she still could not figure out why a man who hated her to the bones would so desperately try to save her. What he had done was far from his so–called hatred for her. She looked blankly at her meticulously bandaged hand. The scene where she pulled that man out of the cave with vines felt like a dream.

If it were in the past, she would never have dared to imagine it at all. ‘Gilbert, you’ve accomplished what you’ve promised me, and so did I.” She muttered to herself as she looked out the window. It seemed to be snowing outside. The snow was very fine, and Kisa could not see them without looking closely. She recalled what Gilbert said when he helped her out of that cave.

Suddenly, she wanted to see that man so much. ‘How are you doing now?‘ She muttered to herself, and little by little, those murmurs soon turned into concern and anxiety.

In the Kooper residence, Gilbert lay motionless on the bed. His lips looked a little dark purplish, either from poisoning or frostbite. Kelvin anxiously used his instruments to perform a full body examination on Gilbert. Mrs. Kooper Sr. wiped her tears away anxiously by the side.

Davian paced around the room too.

After Kelvin was done with the examination, he hissed, “This is a very rare poison. I can’t tell what sort of toxin that is. If only we have some of the fruit to test.”

“That… that fruit came from the mountain, are we supposed to go back there to look for it?”

“It’s too late.”

As they spoke, Gilbert’s body suddenly stiffened as he spat out a mouthful of blood. Mrs. Kooper Sr. panicked as she rushed to the bedside and wailed in sorrow. Yet, Gilbert did not respond at all.

Kelvin quickly checked his heartbeat, and his expression suddenly changed. “His heart has stopped. Davian, take Mrs. Kooper Sr. out. I’ll be using a defibrillator to jolt his heart.”

“No, Gilbert, my dear Gilbert, will not die! How can his heart stop beating? No, no!”

“NO!” Kisa suddenly got up, her chest heaving violently.

She grabbed her arm and asked Lea, “Do you know what happened to Gilbert?”

Lea shook her head. “After he returned with you, Davian and Mrs. Kooper Sr. brought him, Andrew, and Ada back. That b*tch Sharon also followed them, of course.”

Kisa licked her dry lips as she said, “So that means you don’t know how he’s doing right now?”

Lea nodded. “I heard that Mr. Webb gave him a call, but no one answered. He then called the Kooper residence’s landline, but there was no response either.”

Kisa felt the chill even more.

Lea added, “Thank goodness both you and Mr. Gilbert returned safely. I heard there was an avalanche in the mountains. It was the same cave the both of you had taken shelter. The entire place collapsed, and snow is everywhere.”

“What?”
